I don’t know if this is real but I know situations similar to this happen every day. I’m in my late 20’s and thankfully my parents got though a their phase. Parents are scared when they find out a child is gay. They have to question their own internal struggles and try to do right by their child. Sometimes they huff and puff and realize at the end of the day nothing is more important than their child. Sometimes they shut them out or worse send them off to reassignment camps which are still legal in several states. But seriously buzzfeed? Was this news or something to upset people? My heart goes out to everyone dealing with situations like this around the US, I’ve been through it and it sucks, you never fully recover as a family, but we need to focus currently on Russia and Africa. Gays being imprisoned and killed, sometimes with the help of Americans!Oh and trans folks are also being killed right here at home. Text are sad but parents come to their senses eventually.
